For the first time, the yuan overtook the US dollar last month as the most widely used currency for Chinese cross-border transactions.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ruchir Sharma, chairman of Rockefeller International, said that central banks are moving from the US dollar to gold. He wrote in the Financial Times earlier this month that central banks account for a record 33% of monthly global demand for gold and are buying more gold than at any time since data began in 1950.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the dollar\u2019s share of global currency transactions for trade finance was 83.7% compared to the yuan\u2019s 4.5%, with analysts saying the yuan is too tightly controlled by
